Thanks for the tips. I do have a good reason for manually compiling gcc-4.6.0 (and the gcc46 installation failed -- I'm sending a separate error report for that) so I'd like to go forward with that rather than pursuing a different version.
When I tried the suggestion from the FAQ, I got the same error message. The $ fink dumpinfo -fconfigureparams gcc46 gives the following result: Information about 3981 packages read in 1 seconds. configureparams: --prefix=/sw --prefix=/sw/lib/gcc4.6 --mandir=/sw/share/man --infodir=/sw/lib/gcc4.6/info \ --enable-languages=c,c++,fortran,lto,objc,obj-c++,java \ --with-gmp=/sw --with-libiconv-prefix=/sw --with-ppl=/sw --with-cloog=/sw --with-mpc=/sw --with-system-zlib \ --x-includes=/usr/X11R6/include --x-libraries=/usr/X11R6/lib --program-suffix=-fsf-4.6 --enable-cloog-backend=isl And thank you for the information about what goes into $PATH. I''m really lost as to how to tell my configuration script where to look for the Fink-installed packages. Thanks for any further suggestions!
